Didn't know I'll be back so fast, but here I am talking about this video.

It talks about love that last a lifetime, and many lifetimes promised by the guy. The man made his promise, and kept it.

This is a very thoughtful video, and contradiction remains.

After watching the video, do you think the woman should have left her husband to go back to her lover during her young times?

Of what value of love does the man hold when he held on to the dear promise of waiting for her, being with her for the lifetime, and many lifetimes more?

Of what value of love does the man hold when he decided to let his wife go to pursue her wish, only to have himself suffer in silence for the love they shared during the years?

Of what value of love does the children feel when they saw such a circumstance?

We can't say the woman is unfaithful. As what Ella said, during those turbulent times...a woman can't afford to not be married, for it is hard to survive on their own. It might be under family pressure to be married. Can we say she's faithful when she got back to the promise she gave her lover? What kind of reason can she offer to her husband?

Is the man stupid to have upheld the promise, not knowing how much things would have got him killed during those times? Was the love worthwhile? Is the promise worth keeping? By keeping his promise, he could not foretell he had indirectly broke a family when the woman he loved decides to leave her own family to come back to him. However, we must applaud him for his steadfast love, unswayed in shaky times, only to have his promise properly kept for this lifetime.

Was the husband right to have let her go to pursue her own dreams? He knew she won't be happy if he continues to keep her by his side. It is of unconditional love he allowed her back to her lover of her young days. He even bought a house for them as dowry. The family is broken by allowing her back to the man...but he has no choice. Of what degree of love does he hold for her? How much silence will he endure?

When the children saw this happen to their parents, how would they feel? Will they feel that their mother is childish for keeping such a promise, hence being unfaithful to their father? Or will they feel that their mother is right to keep to the promise, because it is a love that will stay for a lifetime? Which man will dare to make a promise of a lifetime? They can't deprive a man of steadfast love to keep his promise actually...but it's a contradiction.

Life's a contradiction. Do you think the woman and the man who held on to his promise are selfish? If so, isn't Love selfish? The husband gave his wife up to hold on her dear promise to the other man. Now isn't this a display of selfless Love?

Selfishness and selflessness is only a thin line of difference. Readers, you make the decision.
